President and CEO Hock Tan expressed optimism going into 2019. “Looking forward to fiscal year 2019, we expect another year of double digit revenue growth. Sustained demand within our semiconductor segment will be augmented by the newly acquired mainframe and enterprise software businesses to our infrastructure software segment. We also expect operating margin to hit another record in fiscal year 2019 driven by improved operating leverage,” he said in a statement.

Tech has been in focus as the trade tensions between the U.S. and China continue to heat up. Preventing intellectual property theft has remained a key part of the U.S.-China trade negotiations.

Huawei is one of China’s most successful tech companies and is also the world’s number two smartphone supplier. Furthermore, Broadcom ranks number 8 on the list of Huawei’s key suppliers and about 6% of the company’s revenue comes from business with Huawei, according to research from Goldman Sachs.

Broadcom shares have been under pressure as trade war uncertainties continue to rock the semiconductor stocks. The stock has fallen nearly 10% so far in 2018.
